-- TO MY FRIENDS --
The Daishonin states,
"You have associated with
a friend in the orchid room
and have become as straight
and have become as straight
as mugwort
growing among hemp."*
In the beautiful realm
In the beautiful realm
of the SGI community,
where we help polish
where we help polish
and inspire one another,
let's advance together
let's advance together
towards achieving
our human revolution!

---- DAILY ENCOURAGEMENT ----
"…when I learned that Mr. Toda had spent two years in prison for his beliefs during World War II, at the hands of the militarist authorities, I felt I could trust him and decided to start practising Nichiren Buddhism.
"Looking back now, I can see that his encouragement echoes the Daishonin's spirit in the words: 'Commit yourself to the Lotus Sutra, and have faith in its teachings' (WND–1, 964).
"Practice is the life of faith. To practice with one's whole being, to take action, with courage is the heart of a living faith. No matter how knowledgeable one may be, one cannot truly understand faith without putting it into action."
The Buddhism of the Sun—Illuminating the World, [81] Advancing Courageously towards Kosen-rufu While making Dynamic Progress in Our Lives, Courageous Practice Is the Hallmark of Youth and the Essence of Faith, January 2022 issue of Daibyaku Renge, the Soka Gakkai monthly study journal, translation released October 2022.
